CAMBRIDGE, Mass., December 15.— The National Economic League, which includes in its membership George W. ‘Wickersham, chairman of the Law En- forcement Commission, has voted for Tepeal of the eighteenth amendment, J. W. Beatson, its executive secretary, announced last night. ‘The league is an organization of 5,500 of the country’s prominent men formed for the purpose of educating and crystallizing public opinion on out- standing issues of the day. In 1926, 52 per cent of those par- ticipating in a poll of its members voted against repeal of the eighteenth amendment. In this year's poll, Beat- son said, 55 per cent of this voting favored repeal. Over Half for Repeal. A total of 2,633 votes were cast in!| the poll, which included a great number | of questions. Of these, 1.440 voted for repeal, 1,090 voted against and 103 did | not vote. ‘The result on some of the other ques- | tions was announced as follows: A majority voted that the Volstead | act be repealed and favored the Federal || Government being empowered by con- | stitutional amendment to control the | sale of all intoxicating liquors through Federal dispensaries except in prohibi- | Christmas Star Specials Tomorrow Only A t These Reduced Prices: Quantities Limited * Scarfs, $3.95 Heavy quality silk scarfs in both square and oblong shapes.
